They do eventually die or else the Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town wouldn't exist. To be honest, I don't know. Death isn't really a theme of a kids' show, and it really isn't explained how long they live.

I would think it depends entirely on the pokemon. A Weedle may not live very long, but Arceus is billions of years old.

But that's how things generally work in real life, too. In the wild, as soon as an animal starts showing any signs of senility, it has very little time left, as it will soon be killed by another animal.
